一：鑿壁偷光

Kuang Heng was born in a poor family. He liked reading books very much. He needed to work at daytime, so he had to read books during night. But he was too poor to buy a candle.One day, he found his neighbour had candles, but the light couldn’t go through his room. So he dug a small hole on the wall so that he could use the light to read books. From that day, he read books every night until the light went out.

However, he finished reading all his books and there were no books for him to read. Then he went to a rich man’s house and worked for him without payment.

The rich man asked: Why don’t you want the money? Kuang Heng said: Because I only want to borrow your books. The rich man agreed. Kuang Heng read the books one by one.

Finally, he became a great scholar.

In the Eastern Han Dynasty, a man named Sun Jing was a famous politician. As a young man, he was diligent in study and often forgot eating and sleeping. When he was reading, he tied his hair to the roof beam with a rope. Therefore, when he dozed, he would feel pain and wake up as his hair was pulled upward by the rope, so that he would go on studying.

Su Qin in the Warring States Period was another example like Sun Jing. He felt sleepy when he was reading, so he took an awl and stabbed it into his own legs. Thus, the sudden pain would wake him up, and he could continue reading.

東漢時(shí)，有一個(gè)叫孫敬的年輕人，孜孜不倦勤奮好學(xué)，從早讀到晚很少休息，有時(shí)候到了三更半夜的時(shí)候很容易打盹，為了不影響學(xué)習，孫敬想出一個(gè)辦法，他找來(lái)一根繩子，一頭綁在自己的頭發(fā)上，另一頭綁在房子的房梁上，這樣讀書(shū)疲勞打瞌睡的時(shí)候只要頭一低，繩子牽住頭發(fā)扯痛頭皮，他就會(huì )因疼痛而清醒起來(lái)再繼續讀書(shū)。

戰國時(shí)期的蘇秦是一個(gè)有名的政治家，但是他在年輕的時(shí)候學(xué)問(wèn)并不多，到了好多地方都沒(méi)有人關(guān)注，即使有雄心壯志也得不到重用，于是他下定決心發(fā)奮圖強努力讀書(shū)。由于他經(jīng)常讀書(shū)讀到深夜，疲倦到想要打盹的時(shí)候就用事先準備好的錐子往大腿上刺一下，這樣突然的痛感使他猛然清醒起來(lái)，振作精神繼續讀書(shū)。

古有孫敬頭懸梁，蘇秦錐刺股，來(lái)告誡后人要認真讀書(shū)學(xué)習。
